It is very much appreciated when teams attend tournament registration party’s!! It helps to keep Saturday Pool Play schedule on track, as well as reduces a HUGE amount of stress for everyone it takes to organize, plan, and operate a NAGVA sanctioned tournament): Regional Commissioners, Tournament Desk Staff, your captains, R1 Evaluators, and last but not least, your hosts: Unko G & Aunty D (plus everyone staying up at the hale, their respective team mates, and their super handsome & “obedient” pup, KA-IPO!!)
YES, ALL OF THESE PEOPLE are VERY THANKFUL when teams attend the registration party!!
Meet up, snacks, and karaoke at "Little Taco and Tequila", conveniently across the street from the Rainbow Room...for those who want to talk to each other without having to scream, this is a great place to move to after you've registered!! Party stops when you stop or 2:00 am, whichever happens first.

Today is the day that counts! Who cares if your team record is 0-8? That you lost your unrated player that got all the sets on Saturday? or that only 4 of your team mates have reported to the gym and the others aren't answering their texts/calls? ANYTHING can happen today! All you gotta do is DREAM BIG, think positive thoughts, and BELIEVE....
Ok, ok...we all know that's a bunch of horse sh!t...crack those whips and get your players ready to do battle! Your friends, those players on the other side of the net, will be your "loser friends" after you crush their dreams and send them into the loser bracket or eliminate them from the tournament as you climb your way back up!! NO MERCY!! But there are official R1's today so play fair, clean and most importantly - to WIN!!! GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!! Remember, volleyball is a game and games are supposed to be FUN...and winning IS fun!!! Bragging rights are on the line, along with an MVP award, All Star awards and the coveted Defensive Diva award, which happened to originate in the PNW (BT dubs...).
